The best is how, even if everything is clean:

- Donnie has offered to testify.

- One committee has asked for the Comey documents and will likely get them

- Another committee has now requested a tapes / no tapes answer from the white house by June 23rd.

So that's like another three days of this poo poo, minimum, even if Donnie never opens his big mouth again.

But, logic isn't a strong suit of these people.

I wasn't keen to beat up on Hillary after the election but her forays into public life and laying blame are going to turn people off fast. She's a lightning rod for criticism and needs to excuse herself.

You're talking about the prisoners being utilized as free domestic labor in the Arkansas governor's mansion, right?

Speaking of,

In a military-styled order titled “Directive 02022017,” Michael Hill, president of the neo-Confederate League of the South (LOS), announced Friday the formation of a new vigilante “defense force.”

The League of the South is calling for all able-bodied, traditionalist Southern men to join our organization’s Southern Defense Force for the purpose of helping our State and local magistrates across Dixie combat this growing leftist menace to our historic Christian civilization. As private citizens in a private organization, we will stand ready to protect our own families and friends, our property, and our liberty from leftist chaos. Moreover, we will be ready to assist our local and State authorities in keeping the peace should they find it necessary to “deputize” private citizens for that purpose.

Quality posting direct from my brain to your face holes.
I'm confused as to whether people wish that first lady of Arkansas Hillary had sent the prison labor to do the same job anywhere besides the governor's mansion, or if they wish that first lady of Arkansas Hillary single-handedly crushed the prison-labor complex regardless of where it took place, or something?

I guess what I'm saying is that when we live in a future when any piece of text longer than a hot take is considered a book, I won't feel so bad about walking into a bar at 10am to watch Comey testify on the TV.

No one was expecting Hillary to single-handedly crush the prison industrial complex, just not personally benefit from that sort of exploitative labor. Hire mansion servants at fair market wages, issue a statement about not accepting slave labor just because there's a constitutional exemption for the particular form of it she was enjoying.

I saw this earlier and didn't post it because it was sorta shady.

Now WaPo is reporting it. Always loving Russia.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/inve...m=.b53071cc6731

quote:

The hard-charging New York lawyer President Trump chose to represent him in the Russia investigation has prominent clients with ties to the Kremlin, a striking pick for a president trying to escape the persistent cloud that has trailed his administration.

Marc E. Kasowitz’s clients include Oleg Deripaska, a Russian oligarch who is close to President Vladimir Putin and has done business with Trump’s former campaign manager. Kasowitz also represents Sberbank, Russia’s largest state-owned bank, U.S. court records show.

Kasowitz has represented one of Deripaska’s companies for years in a civil lawsuit in New York and was scheduled to argue on the company’s behalf May 25, two days after news broke that Trump had hired him, court records show. A different lawyer in Kasowitz’s firm showed up in court instead, avoiding a scenario that would have highlighted Kasowitz’s extensive work for high-profile Russian clients.

...

The Associated Press reported in March that Manafort “secretly worked for” Deripaska as far back as 2006 to influence politics and business dealings inside the United States to benefit Putin’s government. Manafort signed a $10 million annual contract beginning in 2006 and maintained a business relationship until at least 2009, the AP reported.

Deripaska has denied the report, and he sued the AP for libel last month. Deripaska said he “never had any arrangement, whether contractual or otherwise, with Mr. Manafort to advance the interests of the Russian government,” according to the lawsuit. In newspaper ads taken out after the AP story, he said, “I want to resolutely deny this malicious assertion and lie.”


CNN and BuzzFeed previously reported Kasowitz’s Russian clients.

Yeah this sort of hyperbole in no way trivializes the country's sad history of actual human slavery nor completely disregards the debts these prisoners (including black prisoners) owe to their communities (including.. wait for it.. black communities).

I hope the left never gets gutted by its stargazing fringe retards the way the right has.

It still is just a few miles away from me in southern georgia. Yes it is wrong. This is not the thing to bitch at Clinton about, though, especially with almost 40 years of hindsight. Yeah, I agree with you that prison labor is poo poo and if I were personally governor's spouse it would be something that I would be against. However if you expect Clinton, already under attack for not being a proper housewife, could have done anything politically to change the entire culture of the nation you're out of your drat mind.

It just seems like something stupid goons are dogpiling on without looking at it through context.

Speaking for me personally, it's definitely distasteful, and I'm surprised it's not an issue that was brought up during the campaign, but it's not something that's really going to deeply affect my views of Clinton, other than reaffirming that racial politics in the US are hosed Up.

Coal rolling dipshits are everywhere. I see a couple a day. Occasionally I toy with the idea of saving them some time burning all that diesel and just jabbing a knife in the fuel tank, but you never gently caress with another person's ride.

I do flick a lot of cigarettes at them though. That's indirect fuckery, heavy reliant on wind and timing. I've yet to nail one in the face through an open window.
